Minerva POV

Goddamn Martijn. He got from 0 to 100 in hotness real quick.

His oversized t-shirt hides his tummy amazingly and his ripped jeans and suede leather jacket, both in a deep black color, turned him into a sexy icon.

Now, I better turn myself into a top model with my makeup. And I would, if this motherfucking eyeliner would come out good.

Another time that I try, another fail. Uffff! I can't go to Martijn's office without makeup! There are all his friends there.

A few minutes later, someone knocks on the bathroom door.
"Miné?! Everything alright?" I hear Martijn asking from the other side of the door.

"Yeah, kinda"

"Kinda?"

With the corner of my eye, I see the door opening and Martijn's head peeking in. Once he's sure that I'm not sitting on the toilet, he enters.

"What's up?" he asks me.

"I can't do my eyeliner!"

He walks behind me and digs his fingers into my hair, combing them.
So relaxing.
"Take your time"

"Are you late?" I ask him.

"We are just on time dear. But I think we can solve this faster.... Christinaaa!"

My BFF enters the bathroom, asking what happened, and then looks at me with eyeliner on one eye only.

"Can you do her makeup? She's nervous" he asks her moving a strand of my hair behind my ear.

Me? Nervous? For what?
Oh bloody hell. I am....

"Oooohh I get it. Sure sis!"

I smile at my super duper sis and Martijn walks out the bathroom, smiling and winking at me.

But.... Why did he call for help? Why didn't he just tell me 'remove your makeup' like he always did?
Do I look tired? Ugly? Hit by a train?

"Miné... Sit onto the wc, so I can do your eyeliner"

I do as she asked, but then I feel like I have to talk about my appearance with her.

"Do I look ugly Chris?"

She looks into my eyes, with a suspicious look that she turns into a laughter.

"Sis..... If you think you look ugly we don't even deserve to live.... Brown caramel hair and blue/green eyes, nice ass and boobies.... What do you want more?"

She's the only one who can actually cheer me up like this. Just laugh at my own mind.

"Oh, nothing Christy. It's just that Martijn is so hot today and... I'm invited to the STMPD STUDIOS where there are all his friends. I don't want to look bad"

"I know that you are still hiding something Minerva Jane Bakker" she says appliyng eyeliner on my left eye.

Hey. She just called me by my full name. Oh goodness....

"I somehow forgot about my second name. But yeah, Martijn usually would have told me to remove my makeup. So I thought I maybe looked tired."

Martijn appears magically into the bathroom, staring blankly at me as he walks in.

"Jane? What..... Why didn't you tell me???" he asks me smiling.

"Oh, I just forgot that I have a second name, Gerard"

He stands right next to me while Christina finishes my makeup. She even applied a little glitter pomade on my eyelids and a lot of mascara. I never understood how the heck she is able to put on this amount of product without making lashes stick to each other.

"Ok sissy... We are done. Don't put on lipstick, unless you want to have Martijn to kiss it away from you"

"Not a bad idea....." he states.

Nudging him, I get up from the toilet seat and walk in front of the mirror, saying 'thank you' to my best friend, who leaves.

I choose from the lip tints I own a nude tone, and I was just about to apply it when Marty stops me.

"I don't want to kiss it away from your lips. Plus, this is too light for this makeup"

"You don't understand a thing of makeup Martijn...." I tell him winking and applying the product on my lips.

"Ok, but then don't complain about me not kissing you" he says getting closer to me and embracing my body from the back.

"Shut up please..... You know that I need makeup. You wouldn't have told me what you said"

"Why? What did I do? "

"You know what you did, or well, what you didn't say" I tell him, putting away my lipstick once I'm done with it.

I was about to go to my room, but he holds me back into him.
I turn around, asking him to let me go. I'm not in the mood right now...

He eventually lets go of me and I walk out of the bathroom, grabbing my bag, jacket and car keys.

"Miné! Are you running away from me?" Martijn says running after me.

"I'm just going to drop you off to your meeting. I'm not in the mood to visit your office right now"

Chris & Chris are nowhere to be seen, so I walk out of the main entrance, waiting for Martijn to follow.

He closes the door behind him and grabs my arm, but without hurting me or anything like that.

"Minerva.... Please. Why are you acting like this? You are strange"

We get into the elevator and as soon as the doors close, I spill everything out.

"Why didn't you just tell me to remove my makeup and go out without anything on my face? You find me ugly, I'm sure about that. Or worst case ever, you don't want to be seen with a girl who's not a top model"

His face is kinda lost, or more like sorry for what he said.
"Miné.... How can you think about something like this.
I'm sorry babe. I don't want to make you feel bad about yourself....."

"Ok"

"Darling, I just... I don't know what to say. But Bae you are stunning, makeup is just boosting everything up"

The elevator ride ends and I realize that I behaved like a psycho girlfriend for real.....

Isn't my period coming in a couple days?

I should say sorry.
